IN warm summer weather many persons
feel an irresistible craving for something
sour, and often gratifying this desire by a
free indulgence in pickles and vegetables
made acid by vinegar. This demand for
acid indicates a deficiency in the acid secre-

artificial one is a natural one, but vinegar is
not the best substitute Tactic acid is one
Of the chief agents that give aeidity TO the

Lester House Hotel Brunswick, franklin

September. decided to close their hotels
against all transient and regular boarliers IN
definitely, to take effect ON the 18th inst.
Each landlord qualified himself under oath
to live up TO the agreement, which shall not
be changed unless by unanimous consent OF
the parties interested. The regular boarJlers

leave at once are greatly distressed by rea-
son of their inability 10 find suitable lodging
